Summary
Schematic view of a classical Van De Graaff generator.
- hollow metallic sphere (with positive charges)
- electrode connected to the sphere, a brush ensures contact between the electrode and the belt
- upper roller (Plexiglass)
- side of the belt with positive charges
- opposite side of the belt with negative charges
- lower roller (metal)
- lower electrode (ground)
- spherical device with negative charges, used to discharge the main sphere
- spark produced by the difference of potentials
